Photographic Images and Matter: Japanese Prints of the 1970s was officially opened with a reception on Friday, 20 April 2018 at Nanyang Academic of Fine Arts (NAFA). Together with Dr Bridget Tracy Tan, Director of Institute of Southeast Asian Arts & Galleries of NAFA, Ms Akiko Sugita, Director of JCC (Japan Creative Centre), welcomed the guests.

Co-organised by JCC, The Japan Foundation and NAFA, “Photographic Images and Matter” is a touring exhibition which focuses on print expressions from the 1970s as seen in the work of 14 artists who helped develop a print movement in the world of Japanese contemporary art. The exhibition is divided into two sections: “The Age of Photographic Images”, which focuses on the use of photographic images in the print medium, and “Images of Autonomous Matter”, which focuses on works that were shaped by the intentions of matter.
